Miles Teller angry over ‘wrong’ magazine profile

According to Esquire magazine, rising star Miles Teller is arrogant, immature and somewhat rude.

The magazine’s profile of the 28-year-old actor has gone viral thanks to its honest, no-holds-barred portrayal of Teller’s “d**ckishness.”

Teller has taken umbrage at the story, which is headlined: “Miles Teller Is Young, Talented, and Doesn’t Give a Rat’s Ass What You Think”, for describing him as “kind of a d**k.”

@esquire couldn’t be more wrong,” Teller wrote in response to a tweet the magazine shared on the story.

“I don’t think there’s anything cool or entertaining about being a d**k or an a**hole. Very misrepresenting.”

In the piece, written by Esquire‘s entertainment writer Anna Peele, Teller recounts his college years spent smoking marijuana and explains the origins of his tattoo, which he got as “a reference to the thirty-two-ounce beers his high school friends were forced to buy because forties were not available in Florida”.

A particularly notable section includes Peele detailing the perils of sharing a meal with the Whiplash star.

“The pork looks great and you offer him some. ‘I’ll take a little bit,’ he says, sawing at it. Then: ‘I can’t cut this.’ You have to cut his meat for him, a man who ten minutes earlier showed you an iPhone photo of his back muscles to prove how strong he is,” she writes.

Peele also recounts Teller’s apparent obsession with his appearance, particularly his hair, which “he’s brought up … in more than one interview.”

“I probably think I’m better-looking than the public thinks I am,” Teller admits in the interview.

To promote her story, Peele tweeted a link with the words: “If you like aggressive, charming young movie stars and beautiful nude women, read my Miles Teller profile.”

The piece is accompanied by black-and-white photos of Teller posing with a naked female model.
